Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson engaged

Jessica Simpson is gonna be a wife again! The singer&actress and reality TV star — who’s divorced from Nick Lachey — is engaged to boyfriend Eric Johnson, it was announced Sunday.

Former NFL player Eric went down on one knee on Thursday and Jessica accepted his proposal.

On Saturday, Simpson flashed a sizable ring on her left hand during an appearance at Dillard’s at Oak Park Mall in Kansas City, according to Us Weekly magazine.

Simpson’s rep has confirmed the news, saying, “Yes, they are engaged.”

Previous reports claimed Jessica’s friends are worried Eric is just using her to get famous.

“I don’t care if he’s so smart and all that, I get the sense he’s more interested in people knowing he’s dating Jessica Simpson rather than truly caring about Jess and her needs,” said one of Jess’ pals.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper, another friend insists he is a “fame whore… the kind of guy who is really into dating famous women”.
